Scientific paper

When supernova remnants (SNRs) encounter molecular clouds, the clouds can act as beam dumps for cosmic rays accelerated in an SNR's shock front. This can amplify the gamma-ray signal from the SNR and provide a tracer of hadronic cosmic-ray acceleration. This poster will review recent results in gamma rays from sites of supernova remnant / molecular cloud interactions.
